Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund are reportedly keen on signing 16-year-old Arsenal attacking sensation Chido Obi.
According to a report by German outlet Sport1, Chido Obi is the subject of interest from Borussia Dortmund. The Bundesliga giants are keen on prising the 16-year-old attacking sensation away from Arsenal. But the Gunners are eager to keep hold of the teenage prospect.
Who is Chido Obi?
Chidozie Obi-Martin, better known as Chido Obi, has made headlines since joining Arsenal in 2022. A native of Glostrup, a town in Copenhagen, the Danish youth international spent the early years of his youth career with Kjøbenhavns Boldklub. But his stock has soared since joining the North London club.
The 16-year-old has risen to the Under-18 level at Arsenal and represented the club in the FA Youth Cup, Premier League 2, Under-18 Premier League, and UEFA Youth League this season. He also made headlines in November by scoring ten goals in an age-group game against Liverpool.
But Chido Obi faces an uncertain future at Arsenal amid rising interest in his services. The teenage wonderkid has captured the attention of many high-profile clubs, including Borussia Dortmund. The Bundesliga giants are keen on securing his services as soon as possible.

The Black and Yellows have been active in the market in the January transfer window, signing Jadon Sancho and Ian Maatsen. They are also renowned for constantly scouring the market for the brightest young prospects. After all, Borussia Dortmund’s reputation for grooming talented prodigies is sky-high.
Recent reports have linked Borussia Dortmund with Nico Paz. The Bundesliga giants are now interested in Chido Obi, looking to raid Arsenal for the headline-making 16-year-old. They have seen many highly-rated prospects, including Jadon Sancho and Jude Bellingham, blossom into world-class stars. And the Arsenal attacking sensation might be the next in line to rise to prominence at the Signal Iduna Park.
But the Gunners are not ready to throw in the towel yet and will battle hard to keep hold of the Danish youth international. It will be interesting to see if Obi remains at Arsenal or joins Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund this year.
